chocolate box 2020

hello! i'm very excited that you're writing or drawing for me. i'm very easy to please so if you're looking to go really out there with an idea, just do that, unless it involves my dnws! chocolate box is a fun little valentine no matter what. i'm [archiveofourown.org profile] Marks on AO3 and [twitter.com profile] nonnonnegative on twitter.

dnw: this is in my sign-up, but a/b/o, unhappy endings, infidelity, major character death. exception: canonical deaths CAN be mentioned as long as the canonical death isn't part of the pairing or graphically portrayed. yes, this is me staring at jojo's and fire emblem in despair.

ratings: whatever. g to e for life, baby.

hey, so for higher ratings, do you care who tops? i do not. i would also prefer everyone be adults, and aging up characters is obviously fine.

love: intimacy and love shown without actually saying the words. clandestine meetings in easily discovered places. longing. pining of the mutual kind. let everyone pine. smoking. canon divergence. AUs as long as they're not high school AUs. fighting, especially if someone gets thrown against a wall. throwing each other against walls or other similar tension resolution. sexy smoking. praise kink - several characters i requested are of the 'tell me i'm good tell me i'm good tell me i'm good' variety and that's by design. hurt/comfort - preferably in equal measure or with emphasis on the comfort part.

opt-in stuff that people feel weird about including without explicit go ahead: all of those sort of questionable under-the-influence consent things - drinking/drug use, magical things like sex pollen, or aliens made them do it scenarios all okay.

specific fandom things:

fire emblem: three houses  - caspar/linhardt, claude/hilda, ferdinand/hubert, claude/lorenz

man, i'd be thrilled with any of these. if you want a timeline to narrow things down, i love the five years in between the academy and war phases, and also anything set after the end of the game. you've probably noticed all of these pairings have possible paired endings, but don't feel like you have to stick with the endings canon has given you. you can, though! i like the possibilities of all of those.

for aus, i’m always happy with making something that's not a sports series into a sports series. i'm also happy with everyone going to space. or having super powers beyond their canonical ones. or having wings! for canon divergence, role swap is so! good! like ferdinand without a crest, but as edelgard's retainer? that's amazing. or just everyone working together so that a third of the students don't wind up dying.

i would love teasing banter with any of these, they've all got varying levels of tension between them, though obviously some have less than others. background pairings are okay! i just ask that none of the requested characters be part of a pairing i didn't request, even as a background thing. my only exception to that would be caspar/ashe because they have a cat together and i respect that.

haikyuu!! - tsukishima kei/yamaguchi tadashi, hinata shouyou/tsukishima kei, kageyama tobio/tsukishima kei, tsukishima akiteru/udai tenma

take careful note of that last one, it's the other tsukishima. :D

i'm completely caught up with the manga, so please feel free to incorporate whatever you want from that. loving (most of) that timeskip. in fact, even if you're not following the canonical timeskip elements, i'd prefer something set outside of the hinata in high school years. the only exception to that would be if you want to write tsukki teasing yamaguchi when he's named captain and how that affects both of them.

au-wise, hey i'm always down with giving them all swords or wings or making them drift compatible. for akiteru and tenma specifically, i'd love exploration of that 'yeah i'm an adult now but at what cost?' thing that happens in your twenties. oh! and if you want to send kageyama and/or hinata to the olympics, i'd love that.

hypnosis microphone - arisugawa dice/yumeno gentaro, amemura ramuda/yumeno gentaro, amemura ramuda/jinguji jakurai, amemura ramuda/aohitsugi samatoki, amemura ramuda/arisugawa dice/yumeno gentaro

hmmm if it's not obvious from this list, gentaro and ramuda are my favorite characters and so feel free to put them both into anything, even if they're not part of the pairing. i'm very much into the FLING POSSE ARE REAL POSSE thing that canon's been doing lately and if that thing turns romantic on all sides, i'm not against it. i would be all for dr. jakurai helping ramuda not die, or gentaro going gambling with dice, or dice trying to write a story for gentaro, or something about samatoki and ramuda's first battle where samatoki lost, or maybe something where ramuda's a liason between samatoki and nemu. i'd also be interested in something set about ten years down the line.

AU ideas: STELLA. EVERYONE IS A CHARACTER IN STELLA!!! any of gentaro's aus are fine, really. princess and knight, trying to pump up his team with another training montage, whatever.

feel free to include any other character, i either love or have exasperated fondness for all of them. oh, and please don't lean too heavily into the POOR MEN elements of the series. i find the actual plot of hypmic hilarious and don't want it taken seriously in any way, thank you and have a nice day.

jojo's bizarre adventure - giorno giovanna/guido mista, narancia ghirga/trish una, narancia ghirga/guido mista

yes, i love the passiones very much! let's have fun with them and let them be in love. i vastly prefer things set far down the line; everyone is very young and very traumatized after the eight-day death sprint that is canon, so i'm not super interested in things set before they've had time to process and maybe heal a bit. not that i don't want their pasts to affect them, but araki beats his characters up enough, i don't really want a fanwork made for me to do the same.

love mista calling giorno boss. love anything that involves him throwing himself directly in the path of bullets for a man who has magical powers. ever think about how mista is the first person to tell giorno that it's dumb trying to get killed because that means you're dead, but also constantly putting himself into mortal peril for giorno anyway, which means he has complete faith in giorno always saving him? yeah, me either. 

along the same lines, i'm also never thinking about how narancia swam after a boat, screaming that he and trish are the same. no, i lie, i'm thinking about both constantly. i love how careful narancia is around trish, but also love that trish's stand is literally about things being way harder to break if you make them softer. one of araki's best ideas? yes, definitely. you can include both giomis and naratrish in one thing, if you matched on both! heck, you can throw in past naramis, too, if you want.

as for naramis, they're the laid back pairing here, and i LOVE that about them. they can be bros kissing for fun or freaking fugo out. they can save each other from danger. they can be very deeply in love and very deeply stupid together. they're my two favorite vento aureo characters and i'm invested in them both being happy!!

can go for pretty much any AU for jojo's, including mundane ones. it's nice if they get a break from the constant danger. golden wind is really the only jojo's part i'm deeply invested in, but i've either watched the rest or know all of the major plot points, so you can do whatever lore-weaving you'd like to. i don't mind canonical deaths being mentioned, but kind of background it. i'm also fine with either ignoring them completely or having giorno use his stand to bring them back. all good!
